Updated: May 5, 2012
The national Multiple Sclerosis Society held it's 20th annual 'Walk MS Joplin' event at Landreth park Saturday.

The group hoped to raise $15,000 from the walk this year, and hope to raise $150,000 throughout the Ozarks.

Organizers say they hope events like this one put them a step closer to finding a cure for the disease.

The money raised goes to research to help in finding the cure for MS and also for programs and services they offer to their clients.
